The 17 foot high stone fireplace will gather friends and family around for memorable cozy evenings.

A great cabin with everything you need for a comfortable stay with a family. Getting in and out of the driveway with the car can be a bit challenging but otherwise a perfect stay. The house is well stocked and the hot tub was great. Clean and easy to check in

What a special space. Gorgeous property, beautiful interior, great fire. Lights around the stairs were a magical touch :) Only issue was it was raining a lot and there’s no covered area to keep towels or other things dry on the hot tub deck… but we made do!

This property is perfect
We wanted to show our French exchange student a little slice of Canada. This property exceeded our expectations. We arrived to a warm glow up a magical staircase. The decks and hot tub were beautiful and the house was beautifully appointed and spotless. Every detail was charming. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

It’s ok
As log cabins go, this one is ok, a bit tired in parts, 2 broken recliners in the lounge, work tops in kitchen need updating and we weren’t fans of the spiral staircase and the bedroom doors, but, overall it’s ok

Great rustic cabin!
My husband Steve, cousin Theona and her hubby, Milton and our two small dogs stayed at this lovely log cabin last week. We had a wonderful time. The cabin was very well equipped with everything you need in your kitchen. There was lots of room inside and the hot tube was a bonus. We would definitely go back again. Thank you France and Dan👍😁

Hands down best cabin ever
This property had all what we needed, I wish I knew there was a waffle maker. It had probably more cooking utensils then other properties I have stayed and were in good shape, my only regret was not staying a extra day. Communication with Dan was great , my dogs were comfy and slept infront of the fireplace .

Nice rustic cabin
This is a very well kept property and very nice overall. Just a couple of things that I missed in the listing when I made my reservation that I wanted to mention. First, no dishwasher. Definitely not a show-stopper, but I've gotten used to having one. Second, the master sleeping accommodations are in the loft and the bath is on the main level. This was also not a show-stopper, but I'm getting older and have to make more than one trip during the night and that meant a trip up and down the stairs. Might be a problem for someone with limited mobility. All in all, the hosts were excellent and the property is lovely. I would stay here again.

Handsome Dan’s is a quiet, cosy and luxurious stay. We had a lovely winter getaway here. The steaming hot tub was bliss and the wood burning fire place kept us warm during a cold snap. We made great use of the fully equipped kitchen and slept well in the super comfortable beds. Dan and France are terrific hosts — they’ve thought of everything and we’re very responsive to any questions we had.
